AFTER CONAuGHTON'S MURDERER.
Detective Grady Finds the Revolver with
Which the Shooting Was Done.

There promises to be some startling develop
ments in the Conaughton murder case within
the next Few days and there is possibility
that the murderer may, after all, be discovered.
Detective Grady has found several important
clews. Yesterday, in company with witnesses,
he made search OF the premises Of the
Flesher residence for the revolver that was
used in killing the young man. The last place
searched was the vault of the clubhouse, In
which he found the revolver that is supposed to
have been used by the murderer, and deposited
there some time after the killing The re-
volver found is of the same caliber as the bullet
taken from the murdered man. Mr.. Grady and
his associates have also discovered several other
very valuable clews. and which they think will
result in the discovery Of the guilty man within
a few days at least.

to much speculation as to the next move against

the repeated reprimands from their party. vary

plight in which they have placed the Democracy

the city have given up all hope of success two
years hence, and this, added to the worry in
guessing what the Republicans intend to do,
causes the conspirators to be afraid of anything
suggestive of further movements in preserv-
ing their illegal majority joint bal

promises to bring forth results that the people

A Peers Daughter Marries a Miner.

Augusta (Ga.) Chronicles: A very
beautiful English girl came to min
ing town in Montgomery County,
North Carolina, last autumn to spend
some time with her uncle and sister.
The husband;of the sister is one of the
owners of a gold mine. The ladies
were said to be the daughters of an
English Earl. The younger sister or
Lady Aymer, as she was called,
became well known in that section.
One of her pleasures was to visit the
mine, where a large force of men were
employed. Among these miners was
Harry Bell, native of North Carolina.
Lady Aymer and Harry Bell soon had
stolen interviews A week ago Lady
Aymer's sister missed her. Bell, too,
was missing. In twenty-four hours
came the news that a marriage had
taken place between the alleged Peers
daughter and the American miner.
Then came Mr.. and Mrs. Bell. They
had gone over into Rowan Couty,
which adjoines Montgomery, and were
married by a rustic preacher.
